Welcome To The Germ Infested House Of Fawn

Remember how I thought we were getting better? Forget it.

Today was MISERABLE.

Coughing all last night, sad baby all day long.

We spent some serious cuddle/nursing time together today, trying to get it all out of our systems. It's so awful to watch a sad sick baby. She just looks so confused & hurt when she can't stop coughing.

I managed to haul our icky selves to the health food shop to grab some rosemary, lavender & eucalyptus oils and boy howdy, do they ever help. I sometimes forget the power of aromatherapy -- I really need to make it my first defense from now on.

Thanks for all of your kind messages & well wishes -- hopefully we'll ACTUALLY be on the mend soon! I'm not sure our noses can take much more blowing!

Peace!

...

Note: The boy is completely healthy without even the slightest hint of a cold. This makes me pretty happy, however. I'm not sure I could take care of TWO babies at once & live to tell about it.

Thyme tea is good for deep chest coughs....just an idea.
xoxo hugs to the Fawn girls

I've never used aromatherapy. I should do some research on it?

Boooo to being sick. Y'all need a good old fashioned thunder storm, I hear they're good for the soul. And the humidity couldn't hurt either, could it? hee hee.

Mmm, a thunderstorm would be PERFECT right about now. I'd love to run around in one, haha, though that might not be great for my cold.

Aromathery and such is really neat -- I don't know a TON about it, but I do know that I love the different smells!
Eucalyptus REALLY clears out the stuffed nose symptoms -- such a good feeling.
